We prefer to make one or two extract, by which tbo reader will be able to Judge for himself of tbia "contemplated secret war upon the South." Mark the solemn commencement : "Twenty yoara ago the whole South was thrown Into a atate of inlenne excitement by the circulation of abolition pamphlets through the maiUluihat portion of (he Union. President Jackson deemed the subject of so much importance that he referred to It in his annual message of the Sth or December, 1835." a a "Twenty yean bare added Tartly to abolition power, to abolition bitterness, to abolition ingenuity and skill. Hated In lbtf by the Whigs of the Norlb, and In many places rio-lently rebuked by all parties In the free State, It baa acquired a growth and a potency that startles our wisest autoamen. It has completely captured the whole northern Whig party; and at the present moment, by means or another secret society, It boasts ol being in a majority In every free State or the American Union. Nay, not coutent with tbis, it now turns Its hell-Ifth machinery upon the South, and hopes, by the aid or deferters from the Demoratlc ranks, and ambitious Whig aspirants, to involve fifteen Southern Statea In Its fatal toils. "The secret society or the Know-No things, abolltionized as it is to Ita heart's core. Is an Improvement upon the Ingenious plot of striking at the South through the Postofflcea. It gives to the enemies of the South tbis adrantage: The : master will set the example ol holding secret I cabals to his slaves; and while tha one plots the overthrow of the rights of his white fellow-citizen who may be a Catholic or a foreign born, the other prepares to take his freedom by means of those sudden, secret, and bloody organisations which have too often menaced the South I The cUtnrieatlue eianiple may be contagious. . Every northern Know-Nothing orator called to the South can dr bis double, duty by destroying Uie adopted citizen and the slaveholder at the fatue tiinel" Which is right: The .Yew Era. which denoun-, cea the Know Nothings aa pro-Slavery; or the Union, which says the Order contemplate a "secret war upon the institutions of the Soun"T Both ciui't bo right, tbat'a certain. Blt la possible that both are wrong. Who wiilqiilet the fears or these two organs of extreme opinions! The alarm or the Union will probatl? subside alter the Virgiula election, specially IT the administration sustains ludf In the Old Dominion. In that a vent, bow shall we eoothu the JVfu Era t Herfoutly, la U not time that men whooaorass the opinions or ethers should preserve something like consistency themselves t Canal Tolls opea Rallraadi. Gov. Clakx has sent a ejieoial message to tho Legislature of New-York, recommending the Imposition or tolls upon produce, Ac, tent on the railroads that oomo In direct competition with the canals or that State. Tbla message communicates some Important facta, which are or general Interest. For eome time put the receipts from the New York Canals have been diminishing.

The sinking fund, Interest on loans, the support of government, Ac, beside the ordinary expenses of repairs, superintendence, Ac., are to be paid from this source. The deficiency for the post Tear was about $100,000. 'or l8Sft, the dofi cirnoy will be about 1740,000. Something must be done lo provide agalust this evil, anil nonce, the recommend alios or the Governor to Impose tolls on the freight of railroads that compete with the canals, The total aoraaa of tonnage on tho canal during the past year, wan 81,1)11 .

It la doubtful whether the Legislature will agree to tax (be freight on the railroads for the purpose or supplying the deficiency in tne revenues of the Stats. AWhen Mr. Wise first beard of the Amtrl- enn nominations far Virginia, he was at Point Pleasant. He spoke In the hlghost terms or the nominees, but declared that neither or them would accept. It was out of the question, It waa Impossible for such men as Flourney, and Bt'Ble.eml Patton, to accpt tne nominations oi the Know-Nothing party. It waa absurd for the Convention U think that such men would accept anything at their hands. So sal'l. and no doubt, so thought Mr. Wise, iu yet, tacwry anfUk " -"r,l the nominations of the American party, without a moment's hesitation. They are just as good men as Wine described them to be, but they thought It not wrong to receive nominations (rem American cllixena. And to this the voters will soon say, omen.

This fact establishes bayood all dispute the outrageous frauds thai were practiced by people from Missouri. The same game will be practiced at the election of members of the legislature, this spring. We are glad to see that Gov. Runnt le doing all be can to prevent these frauds. It la elated in a Utter from Leavenworth, to the N. Y.

Tne laturaiUalten Laws The argument on this subject came off In tho Court of Common Pleas, before Judge Bates, Saturday altcrooon. The polnU mode against the applications were k FiaaT : That the State Courts had no jurisdic tion under the Constitution of the United States. It was argued that the power of naturalization waa exclusively In the Federal Government, (Chirac u. Cblrao, 24 Wheaton 261, 5th Wheat- oa 49, and Federalist No. 42 and 82) : That Congress might have prescribed any mode they pleased of acquiring oltlzenshlp, either judicial or ministerial : That by vesting the power to naturalize to the Courts they made U a judicial act, (Spralt e. Bpratt, 4lh Peters 407, 7lb 11 1 11 137, 141) : That being a judicial act, by which a party asserted "his rights in a mode prescribed by law," 9th Wheaton 819, it waa within the meaning of see. 2, art III, or the U. S. Consti tution, which provide! that "the judicial power shall extend to all cases In law and equity, ari sing under this Constitution and tho laws or the U. S.," Ac. Naturalization then being "a case' coming under the Judlolal power of the U. S. that power,ec. 1, art. Ill, or the Constitution of the U. 8., could only be vested In the Federal Courts, and not delegated to State Courts, (Mar tin m. Hunter's Lessee, 1st Wheaton 304,) whero Chief Justice Marshall says "Congress cannot lorrcrs or tbo il.o -HI """v Deoa reooatcdlv h.ld that state Courts bad no jurisdiction or casos arising under the laws of the U. S., unless that jurisdiction, as at common law, bad prtlxitted In the States before the adoption of the Consti tution, and hence State Courts bnd refused to entertain suits for penalties under U. S. Statutes, (U. S. vs. Latbrop, 17th Johnson 4; Ely si. Peck, 7th Connecticut 239) : That naturalization was a oaae arising strictly under the statutes of the U. S., for clearly the State Courts previous to the adoption of the Constitution had possessed Jurisdiction to make citizens of the United States. The Priggcaso ( 16th Peters, 539) under the guarded language of the Court against any tuck u$e of It, could not be claimed aa a precedent under any other clause of tho Constitution ; It was "tut genrt," emphatically "a nigger case," In which all the Judges appeared to agree In, was, that the negro was to be caught, though tbey differed among themselves as to how It was to be done. They said It was ducretumary to State Courts to act ; but such a com true Hon could not ba applied lo action under the naturalization clause, because It would at oncu practically destroy the tNiroRurrT of the rule, which of the very tuenee of the constitutional provision. If the law of Congress was consti tutional, ft must bind the Uourts to act as speci fied In it, otherwise It could not bo the supreme law of tbo land. Second: Tbat.uuder Ibe new constitution and laws of Ohio, the Slate Courts could not act, even II the Court should hold tho first polut In favor or the applicants. For, U the Courts, on account of long acqui escence and practice, should bold that tbo principal of the Prigg case applied, that State Courts may act unless prevented by their own constitution and laws then the reitrietite language of sees. 1 and 4, of article IV, of the now constitution, imperatively limited the jurisdiction of the court "as fixed by law;" aud there waa ao law of Ohio authorizing courts to naturalize. Tbe language was different from that of sec. 1, art. Ill of tha old constitution, which similar to that of the Constitution or tho United States, lu relation to tho judicial power, and left room for broader implications as to the extent of tbe jurisdiction. Tbirp: ir tbe Court holds that It has jurisdic tion, then all tbe applications, where tho declarations ol Intention bavo been made before Iho Clerk In vacation, Instead of In open Court, must be rejected as illegal. The 3d section of tbe act of Hay 2ilh, 1824, under which these papers are sutaijied, only applied to declarations mado previous lo Its dale, and was not prospective In its opt-rallon. The hiatnry oi me loirouucuun ui iuu uui dj Mr. Holmes, of Maine, from the Judiuinry committee, Feb. 4, 1824, on tbe petition of George Sutton and others, who wished a curative act paused to make good their first papers Irregularly taken out, showed that It was not Intended to be prospective. Tbe language uticd In the act applied to the past "have been," has been so held by tbe N. Y. Courts, HI Western Law Journal, 527, and by one of tho U. 8- District Courts; and this seems also to have been the opinion of Ibe Judiciary committee of Congren, who, In 1845, through Mr. baundere, Judge Deuglua, and other distinguished lawyers on said committee, reported a bill which, among other things, made vahd such declarations htrttofvre made, and provided expressly that such declarations mutt be made in open Court, (28 Cong. Globe, Appendix, p. 129.) The decision to tho contrary In 1st Vtoodbury & Hinot, 3:3, concedes (bat tbo language of tbo act was past but by a species of judicial legislation endeavors to make It prospective, is no authority for tbis Court, which must construe the statutes fur It self when there Is such a conflict of authorities. For the Applicants It waa contended- First: That there waa no "such case" In Court aa was contemplated In ace, 2, art. Ill, U. 8. Constitution, there being but one party to the record. Ssxonp: That Ibe decision In tbo Prigg case, (16th Peters, 539,) waa conclusive as lo tbe right of Stale Court to act especially as their jurisdiction had been established by long acqui escence and practice, (5th English, Arkansas Report, 621.) Third: That Judge Woodbury scouatructlon aa to tbe right to make declarations before tbe Clerk wu conclusive, because tho act was merely mlulsurlal in lu Minrr. aud tbe statute should be liberally ooustrued. Focrtb: That the Clcrk'i fee-bill, pasted slnoe tbe adoption of tbc new Constitution, allowing twenty-Ave cents for a certificate of naturalization, was a recognition of the Jurisdiction of the Court. To which It wu replied, such leglilatlve recognition eould not govern tbe Court under the authorities. Tbe applicants' counsel auswered, at length, the arguments on tbe other side. Mr. Parsons suggested, for tne of the appli cants, that tbe Judge, if bo had not jurisdiction, might tit as a commiaalouer, as was done by tbe U. 8. Judgea once under a pension law they bout Dot binding Ibem to act judicially. The argument against tbo applicants wu con ducted by Messrs. Noble and Babcr, and for them by Mr. Dresel and Judge Warden occupying nearly four hours Judge W, closing. Judge Bates bu taken the matter under ad visement and will 4al4a this week, aa anma thirty applications depend on tbo decision. The case may go up to tbe Supreme Court of tbe Unltfd Stales to decide the roisrs though, un less the decision is against the applicants, there may be some legal difficulties In taking It up. Caram PauraRTT The Legislature ol Mich igan bu passed a law concerning churches and religious societies, establishing uniform rules for tbe acquisition and control ol property deu-loated for religious purposes, whether for Charcots, schools, or charitable Institutions. All such property shall be held by trustees, ana de scend with tbe Improvements In perpetual iuo-oessloa. The law U general, and applies to all religious denominations alike. Tbla would seem to take away the foundation ot accteaiutioai monopolies la that State. A similar bill bu peated the senate or new- York by a large majority, with every prospect of becoming a law. w, Tbe Washington correspondent of the N. Y- Courier says Mr. SuU baa departed from the capital on good terms with the administration, having concluded not to pursue boslilltlM with the Secretary of State. Tho man is wlso. It to suggested that the ex-Mlnlster burrows wisdom from the experience of Gen. Case, who charged Mr. Webster with not having sustained him with sulacivBl vigor at tne i.ourt m rranoe In his contest on the riant of search. Let Mr, SonK pass Into forgatlulneas. IimtWATtrwAU For Borne Um past a case hu been pending In Boston, before the Supreme Court, wherein two deserters from the British army who bad oommltted larceny, and Hod, were ol aimed under the Aahburlon treaty. The Court hu decided that tbey cannot be returned, u the offence wu not robbery, but simply theft. Without treaty there eould be no claim, and Quarts cannot go farther than the language of tbe oonoessina will olearly warrant Biu Kou Tns Marietta InMUigenctr aays, an egg wu laid upon IM table of tbe editor, that measured eight laches In olnumfereaoel what a waTojperl EmuA Cettea Trade. It appears from reliable returns that notwith standing tbe strikes and turn-outs the past year, there hu been a larger consumption or raw cotton lu Great Britain than at any previous period since tho establishment of this branch or Industry. Since 1780, when tbe consumption waa very small, tho amount has gone on increasing, until In 1836 it amounted to 350,000,000 pounds; In 1845, to 697,000,000; In 1852, to 745,000.000; In 1853 the consumption fell off eleven million pounds; but In 1854 it bad Increased to 780,000,0001 With this Increased consumption of Iho raw material, there bu been an Increase in tbe domestic consumption of tho manufactured article of over six per cent, with a large Increase in tbe trado with Russia, Germany, Holland, Bel-slum, France and Spain, equal to about ao av erage of three per cent; while In the trade with the United States there has beon a falling off of eight per cent This increase of trade htu not relieved the market of tbe glut arising from increased production and tbe surplus of last rear. The seem ing Increase la in many cases fictitious, the relief of the homo market having been produced by consignments abroad Instead of actual sale, which, meeting with depressed markoti, only ro-turn upon tbe merchant In due course to in-oroatv. liia embarraaamenU.

Sho adopts this policy for the maintenance of bur commerce through the subjugating power of her manufacturing monopoly. Sho Is working out a problem for tho bonullt of the world, namely, whether by the power of monopolies, any belter than by armies, a nation can maintain a population, greater than she can feed, In a high state of prosperity and civilization. Homo tried It with her armies and failed, and so may England with her monopolies.The crUls which seems Imiwnilinir over Kn-Und at the prvnent time, diiiers in an eswutial degree from that ofl841-'2: then, from tho operation of the corn laws, tho price of provisions hnd ruled so high that the operatives In her manufactories had eared nothing from their wages; tbey bml nothing to expend for luxuries, and, consequently, being couflued to the absolute neocssariea of life, the domestic or home trade suffered to a greater extent than at pres ent, us Is Indicated by tho Increase of consump tion of manufactured articles over any previous year. Now, under comparative free trade in provisions, tbis Is changed. From a parliamentary return (an abstract of which Is More un), the distress of (be laboring classes Is mado fear fully plain, by tbe deereanctl consumption of Iho raw material in manufactures iu 1811, aa com pared with If 10, while there was a largo in-created export of yarns, threads, and cnlicuea amounting, In calicoes alono, according to ac tual custom-uouK returns, to mare than IfU.OOO,- 000 yards t Thu decreased consumption In 1841, compared with tho previous year, wu set down at an average of three thousand bales a week.

How long it will tuke to teach tha world (he wholesome truth, that production and connu mo tion muHt go togelh?r, remains to be sceu, Wo, in this country, produce the cotton and the provisions, but we send both abroad for consump- i tion.

Th y may he of Interest to members of tbo Order, 1st tbey are dry reading lo outsiders. It la an amusing feature in this connection, to notice the holy horror of the Statesman of se cret societies, when it Is a matter of public no toriety that the Lycofoco party to using all Us energies to establish similar associations in Us own ranks. It is well known that a secret po litical society of Sag Xichts exists In this city, composed or foreigners, and Locofoco demagogue and office .sreavrs, who hare heretofore controlled and used ttfe foreign vote and influ ence for their pereijiiil advancement It Is equally wen Known pruning wkimwu ui i I.. mltmtm aw'.'ii.Jiitfi UUU1 JoEt., of Tinin, is peiamtuiufirjg llie uto in all direc tions, and forming Sag JSlcht lodges, wherever there nro foreigners and Locofocoa enough left lo bo marshaled into a secret Order. It Is notorious that Ihc pro-Slavery Administration at Washington t.M sent out ono of the Clerks In tho employ and pay of the general government to Ohio, for tbe express purpose of organixing these secret political societies. No man knows these fad better than tbe Ed itor of the Ohio Statesman. Yet, knowing Ibem u be does, and approving or them u be does, he ventures so far upon tbc credulity of bis read ers and tbo puhllo, as to suppose bo can make capital by denouncing secret political societies. We again tell him It will not do. The people are not aud cannot be deceived by this sort of clap-trap. They are resolved to sweep from power aud place Ihe Incompetent and corrupt men who now control tho affairs nf tho Stato and nation. They have bud a full tate of their policy and their capacity. They saw tho base movement of PonglM and bis aerrilo followers, by which Slavery is permitted to enter and lako possession of territory heretofore free. Tbey hnvu not ycl forgotten all these things, aud all efforts to frighten them from th-lr integrity by the howling of tho statesman about secret socie ties will be of no avail Hypocritical insincerity, and a disposition to deceive nnd humbug.are tran sparent In all it says.

CortMpoadasca of tba Ohio Htata Journal. Cincinnati, March 28, 1855. Tbe osee or Rosette Armlstead excites a great deal of Interest here. The article In your paper of Saturday evening will deepen It greatly. It wu not generally known or suspected here that bor alfduotlon Iron Columbus wu accomplished by rlolonce aud fraud. The facts which bare transpired here are these: On Thursday lut the Rev. Henry M. Diffxreox made oath before John L. Pendery, a Commissioner somewhat noted for his agency In such mailers, that Uosetta, a colored girl about sixteen years of age, bad escaped from him to whom sho owed scrvioe and labor, in Kentucky, to Ohio, and wu atill In tbia State. Upou Ibis affidavit Pendery issued his warrant, which wu executed In the manner stated in your article. On the arrival of Iho owners here, Mr. Bu,, taw partner or Mr. Chari, who wu absent at HilUboruugb, Interfered, and upou bis suggestion Hosetta wu taken to tbe Woodruff House, where she waa comfortably provided for by di rection of tbe Marshal. On the next day, Saturday, sho wu committed to jail upon the order of Pendery, and remained there until this morn ing, Monday. In Ibe meantime, the Rev. Mr. Dennison went lo Louisville, where doubtless he officiated yes terday as a clergyman of the church. Wonder if be thought or Kosetta in jail, at Uinclnuatt, ! when be read the supplications ot Ibe Litany: mat ra imj ptn aw a, wp tfa upon all prisoner and captives Wo beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord : That It may please Thee to defend and provide fur the fatherless children and all who are desolate and oppressed We beseech Thee to bear as, good Lord"! This morning, on application of tbe frleuds or Rosetta, a writ of habeas corpus wu allowed by Judge Parker, of tbe Court of Common Pleas, returnable forthwith, in obedience to which the child wu brought Into Court Col. Chambers, In behalf of Dennlson, who had not yet returned from Louisville, uked for a continuance till to-morrow morning, saying Mr. Den nlson would probably be accompanied by Messrs. Bullock and Herd, of Louisville, u bis counsel, and that he desired that a full opportunity might bo allowed for the presentation of his claim and the arguments In support of It. Mr. Ciiasx, who appeared for Kosetta, said that no objection could be Interposed to Ihe fullest most thorough examination and hearing; be desired, however, that Kowetla might not be eent back to jail, but be properly provided for elsewhere. The Court, therefore, made an order for the continuance aaked fur, aud requiring the Marshal to provide for her compilable lodging and accommodation outside of tbe Jail, ir possi ble, without danger to her tare custody. Under thin order, tho Marshal bu again pi ov Ided for her at tho Woonacrr llotnu. Tbe case will probably bo further heard to-morrow. Yonra, J.C. rmreapoailaBes of tba Ohio Itata Joaraal.

There was a disirraceful mob here on Satur. day, the 17th. I wu attracted by a crowd on tho principal street On drawing near, I saw a young man of about 22 years standing In the midst of the crowd. Tbey were asking bis name which it appeared bo declined giving. I inquired of a bystander what Ibe excitement was.

" Ride him on a rail 1" Others, more moderate, proposed to send him from town, au were in tavor ot nis leaving: and those that wero the least excited advised bim to leave. He wu uked where be wu from; he answered, "Massachusetts." I uw bim leave ibe crowd, and go to the hotel. Soon lie came out and walked out the crowd, going In tbu direction of the depot. The leader of the mob, wbo (I wu told) wu the Sheriff, swore he should not leave the town, and went in chase ot him, followed by several others. Not knowing what tuoy might do, I concluded to follow, and If I could be of any prrTiuu iu icuuer n appearing io oe a stranger aa well as myself.

Mark the solemn commencement : "Twenty yoara ago the whole South was thrown Into a atate of inlenne excitement by the circulation of abolition pamphlets through the maiUluihat portion of (he Union. President Jackson deemed the subject of so much importance that he referred to It in his annual message of the Sth or December, 1835." a a "Twenty yean bare added Tartly to abolition power, to abolition bitterness, to abolition ingenuity and skill. Hated In lbtf by the Whigs of the Norlb, and In many places rio-lently rebuked by all parties In the free State, It baa acquired a growth and a potency that startles our wisest autoamen. It has completely captured the whole northern Whig party; and at the present moment, by means or another secret society, It boasts ol being in a majority In every free State or the American Union. Nay, not coutent with tbis, it now turns Its hell-Ifth machinery upon the South, and hopes, by the aid or deferters from the Demoratlc ranks, and ambitious Whig aspirants, to involve fifteen Southern Statea In Its fatal toils. "The secret society or the Know-No things, abolltionized as it is to Ita heart's core. Is an Improvement upon the Ingenious plot of striking at the South through the Postofflcea. It gives to the enemies of the South tbis adrantage: The : master will set the example ol holding secret I cabals to his slaves; and while tha one plots the overthrow of the rights of his white fellow-citizen who may be a Catholic or a foreign born, the other prepares to take his freedom by means of those sudden, secret, and bloody organisations which have too often menaced the South I The cUtnrieatlue eianiple may be contagious. . Every northern Know-Nothing orator called to the South can dr bis double, duty by destroying Uie adopted citizen and the slaveholder at the fatue tiinel" Which is right: The .Yew Era. which denoun-, cea the Know Nothings aa pro-Slavery; or the Union, which says the Order contemplate a "secret war upon the institutions of the Soun"T Both ciui't bo right, tbat'a certain.

AWhen Mr. Wise first beard of the Amtrl- enn nominations far Virginia, he was at Point Pleasant. He spoke In the hlghost terms or the nominees, but declared that neither or them would accept.

Tne laturaiUalten Laws The argument on this subject came off In tho Court of Common Pleas, before Judge Bates, Saturday altcrooon. The polnU mode against the applications were k FiaaT : That the State Courts had no jurisdic tion under the Constitution of the United States. It was argued that the power of naturalization waa exclusively In the Federal Government, (Chirac u. Cblrao, 24 Wheaton 261, 5th Wheat- oa 49, and Federalist No. 42 and 82) : That Congress might have prescribed any mode they pleased of acquiring oltlzenshlp, either judicial or ministerial : That by vesting the power to naturalize to the Courts they made U a judicial act, (Spralt e. Bpratt, 4lh Peters 407, 7lb 11 1 11 137, 141) : That being a judicial act, by which a party asserted "his rights in a mode prescribed by law," 9th Wheaton 819, it waa within the meaning of see. 2, art III, or the U. S. Consti tution, which provide! that "the judicial power shall extend to all cases In law and equity, ari sing under this Constitution and tho laws or the U. S.," Ac. Naturalization then being "a case' coming under the Judlolal power of the U. S. that power,ec. 1, art. Ill, or the Constitution of the U. 8., could only be vested In the Federal Courts, and not delegated to State Courts, (Mar tin m. Hunter's Lessee, 1st Wheaton 304,) whero Chief Justice Marshall says "Congress cannot lorrcrs or tbo il.o -HI """v Deoa reooatcdlv h.ld that state Courts bad no jurisdiction or casos arising under the laws of the U. S., unless that jurisdiction, as at common law, bad prtlxitted In the States before the adoption of the Consti tution, and hence State Courts bnd refused to entertain suits for penalties under U. S. Statutes, (U. S. vs. Latbrop, 17th Johnson 4; Ely si. Peck, 7th Connecticut 239) : That naturalization was a oaae arising strictly under the statutes of the U. S., for clearly the State Courts previous to the adoption of the Constitution had possessed Jurisdiction to make citizens of the United States. The Priggcaso ( 16th Peters, 539) under the guarded language of the Court against any tuck u$e of It, could not be claimed aa a precedent under any other clause of tho Constitution ; It was "tut genrt," emphatically "a nigger case," In which all the Judges appeared to agree In, was, that the negro was to be caught, though tbey differed among themselves as to how It was to be done. They said It was ducretumary to State Courts to act ; but such a com true Hon could not ba applied lo action under the naturalization clause, because It would at oncu practically destroy the tNiroRurrT of the rule, which of the very tuenee of the constitutional provision. If the law of Congress was consti tutional, ft must bind the Uourts to act as speci fied In it, otherwise It could not bo the supreme law of tbo land. Second: Tbat.uuder Ibe new constitution and laws of Ohio, the Slate Courts could not act, even II the Court should hold tho first polut In favor or the applicants. For, U the Courts, on account of long acqui escence and practice, should bold that tbo principal of the Prigg case applied, that State Courts may act unless prevented by their own constitution and laws then the reitrietite language of sees. 1 and 4, of article IV, of the now constitution, imperatively limited the jurisdiction of the court "as fixed by law;" aud there waa ao law of Ohio authorizing courts to naturalize. Tbe language was different from that of sec. 1, art. Ill of tha old constitution, which similar to that of the Constitution or tho United States, lu relation to tho judicial power, and left room for broader implications as to the extent of tbe jurisdiction. Tbirp: ir tbe Court holds that It has jurisdic tion, then all tbe applications, where tho declarations ol Intention bavo been made before Iho Clerk In vacation, Instead of In open Court, must be rejected as illegal. The 3d section of tbe act of Hay 2ilh, 1824, under which these papers are sutaijied, only applied to declarations mado previous lo Its dale, and was not prospective In its opt-rallon. The hiatnry oi me loirouucuun ui iuu uui dj Mr. Holmes, of Maine, from the Judiuinry committee, Feb. 4, 1824, on tbe petition of George Sutton and others, who wished a curative act paused to make good their first papers Irregularly taken out, showed that It was not Intended to be prospective. Tbe language uticd In the act applied to the past "have been," has been so held by tbe N. Y. Courts, HI Western Law Journal, 527, and by one of tho U. 8- District Courts; and this seems also to have been the opinion of Ibe Judiciary committee of Congren, who, In 1845, through Mr. baundere, Judge Deuglua, and other distinguished lawyers on said committee, reported a bill which, among other things, made vahd such declarations htrttofvre made, and provided expressly that such declarations mutt be made in open Court, (28 Cong. Globe, Appendix, p. 129.) The decision to tho contrary In 1st Vtoodbury & Hinot, 3:3, concedes (bat tbo language of tbo act was past but by a species of judicial legislation endeavors to make It prospective, is no authority for tbis Court, which must construe the statutes fur It self when there Is such a conflict of authorities. For the Applicants It waa contended- First: That there waa no "such case" In Court aa was contemplated In ace, 2, art. Ill, U. 8. Constitution, there being but one party to the record. Ssxonp: That Ibe decision In tbo Prigg case, (16th Peters, 539,) waa conclusive as lo tbe right of Stale Court to act especially as their jurisdiction had been established by long acqui escence and practice, (5th English, Arkansas Report, 621.) Third: That Judge Woodbury scouatructlon aa to tbe right to make declarations before tbe Clerk wu conclusive, because tho act was merely mlulsurlal in lu Minrr. aud tbe statute should be liberally ooustrued. Focrtb: That the Clcrk'i fee-bill, pasted slnoe tbe adoption of tbc new Constitution, allowing twenty-Ave cents for a certificate of naturalization, was a recognition of the Jurisdiction of the Court. To which It wu replied, such leglilatlve recognition eould not govern tbe Court under the authorities. Tbe applicants' counsel auswered, at length, the arguments on tbe other side. Mr. Parsons suggested, for tne of the appli cants, that tbe Judge, if bo had not jurisdiction, might tit as a commiaalouer, as was done by tbe U. 8. Judgea once under a pension law they bout Dot binding Ibem to act judicially. The argument against tbo applicants wu con ducted by Messrs. Noble and Babcr, and for them by Mr. Dresel and Judge Warden occupying nearly four hours Judge W, closing. Judge Bates bu taken the matter under ad visement and will 4al4a this week, aa anma thirty applications depend on tbo decision. The case may go up to tbe Supreme Court of tbe Unltfd Stales to decide the roisrs though, un less the decision is against the applicants, there may be some legal difficulties In taking It up. Caram PauraRTT The Legislature ol Mich igan bu passed a law concerning churches and religious societies, establishing uniform rules for tbe acquisition and control ol property deu-loated for religious purposes, whether for Charcots, schools, or charitable Institutions. All such property shall be held by trustees, ana de scend with tbe Improvements In perpetual iuo-oessloa. The law U general, and applies to all religious denominations alike. Tbla would seem to take away the foundation ot accteaiutioai monopolies la that State. A similar bill bu peated the senate or new- York by a large majority, with every prospect of becoming a law. w, Tbe Washington correspondent of the N. Y- Courier says Mr. SuU baa departed from the capital on good terms with the administration, having concluded not to pursue boslilltlM with the Secretary of State. Tho man is wlso.

IimtWATtrwAU For Borne Um past a case hu been pending In Boston, before the Supreme Court, wherein two deserters from the British army who bad oommltted larceny, and Hod, were ol aimed under the Aahburlon treaty. The Court hu decided that tbey cannot be returned, u the offence wu not robbery, but simply theft. Without treaty there eould be no claim, and Quarts cannot go farther than the language of tbe oonoessina will olearly warrant Biu Kou Tns Marietta InMUigenctr aays, an egg wu laid upon IM table of tbe editor, that measured eight laches In olnumfereaoel what a waTojperl EmuA Cettea Trade. It appears from reliable returns that notwith standing tbe strikes and turn-outs the past year, there hu been a larger consumption or raw cotton lu Great Britain than at any previous period since tho establishment of this branch or Industry. Since 1780, when tbe consumption waa very small, tho amount has gone on increasing, until In 1836 it amounted to 350,000,000 pounds; In 1845, to 697,000,000; In 1852, to 745,000.000; In 1853 the consumption fell off eleven million pounds; but In 1854 it bad Increased to 780,000,0001 With this Increased consumption of Iho raw material, there bu been an Increase in tbe domestic consumption of tho manufactured article of over six per cent, with a large Increase in tbe trado with Russia, Germany, Holland, Bel-slum, France and Spain, equal to about ao av erage of three per cent; while In the trade with the United States there has beon a falling off of eight per cent This increase of trade htu not relieved the market of tbe glut arising from increased production and tbe surplus of last rear. The seem ing Increase la in many cases fictitious, the relief of the homo market having been produced by consignments abroad Instead of actual sale, which, meeting with depressed markoti, only ro-turn upon tbe merchant In due course to in-oroatv. liia embarraaamenU.

Now, under comparative free trade in provisions, tbis Is changed.

Th y may he of Interest to members of tbo Order, 1st tbey are dry reading lo outsiders. It la an amusing feature in this connection, to notice the holy horror of the Statesman of se cret societies, when it Is a matter of public no toriety that the Lycofoco party to using all Us energies to establish similar associations in Us own ranks. It is well known that a secret po litical society of Sag Xichts exists In this city, composed or foreigners, and Locofoco demagogue and office .sreavrs, who hare heretofore controlled and used ttfe foreign vote and influ ence for their pereijiiil advancement It Is equally wen Known pruning wkimwu ui i I.. mltmtm aw'.'ii.Jiitfi UUU1 JoEt., of Tinin, is peiamtuiufirjg llie uto in all direc tions, and forming Sag JSlcht lodges, wherever there nro foreigners and Locofocoa enough left lo bo marshaled into a secret Order. It Is notorious that Ihc pro-Slavery Administration at Washington t.M sent out ono of the Clerks In tho employ and pay of the general government to Ohio, for tbe express purpose of organixing these secret political societies. No man knows these fad better than tbe Ed itor of the Ohio Statesman. Yet, knowing Ibem u be does, and approving or them u be does, he ventures so far upon tbc credulity of bis read ers and tbo puhllo, as to suppose bo can make capital by denouncing secret political societies. We again tell him It will not do. The people are not aud cannot be deceived by this sort of clap-trap. They are resolved to sweep from power aud place Ihe Incompetent and corrupt men who now control tho affairs nf tho Stato and nation. They have bud a full tate of their policy and their capacity. They saw tho base movement of PonglM and bis aerrilo followers, by which Slavery is permitted to enter and lako possession of territory heretofore free. Tbey hnvu not ycl forgotten all these things, aud all efforts to frighten them from th-lr integrity by the howling of tho statesman about secret socie ties will be of no avail Hypocritical insincerity, and a disposition to deceive nnd humbug.are tran sparent In all it says. H is rauking itself a tit sub ject for merriment to all who have the le mom of the ludicrous. Thu public might havo had somo respect for an honest, open and hearty opitosltion to secret political avciotiea. Thousands who have a sympathy for Ihe general objects wbfeb the K.N.'i propose to aoootnplkb, have no sympathy with the means. But, when they see their opponents banding together in se cret societies to perpetuate these abuses, tboy have no alternative but to act and rote with those who aro determined to pot an end to tho evils under which wu have so long been crushed.

CortMpoadasca of tba Ohio Htata Journal. Cincinnati, March 28, 1855. Tbe osee or Rosette Armlstead excites a great deal of Interest here. The article In your paper of Saturday evening will deepen It greatly. It wu not generally known or suspected here that bor alfduotlon Iron Columbus wu accomplished by rlolonce aud fraud. The facts which bare transpired here are these: On Thursday lut the Rev. Henry M. Diffxreox made oath before John L. Pendery, a Commissioner somewhat noted for his agency In such mailers, that Uosetta, a colored girl about sixteen years of age, bad escaped from him to whom sho owed scrvioe and labor, in Kentucky, to Ohio, and wu atill In tbia State. Upou Ibis affidavit Pendery issued his warrant, which wu executed In the manner stated in your article. On the arrival of Iho owners here, Mr. Bu,, taw partner or Mr. Chari, who wu absent at HilUboruugb, Interfered, and upou bis suggestion Hosetta wu taken to tbe Woodruff House, where she waa comfortably provided for by di rection of tbe Marshal. On the next day, Saturday, sho wu committed to jail upon the order of Pendery, and remained there until this morn ing, Monday. In Ibe meantime, the Rev. Mr. Dennison went lo Louisville, where doubtless he officiated yes terday as a clergyman of the church. Wonder if be thought or Kosetta in jail, at Uinclnuatt, ! when be read the supplications ot Ibe Litany: mat ra imj ptn aw a, wp tfa upon all prisoner and captives Wo beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord : That It may please Thee to defend and provide fur the fatherless children and all who are desolate and oppressed We beseech Thee to bear as, good Lord"! This morning, on application of tbe frleuds or Rosetta, a writ of habeas corpus wu allowed by Judge Parker, of tbe Court of Common Pleas, returnable forthwith, in obedience to which the child wu brought Into Court Col. Chambers, In behalf of Dennlson, who had not yet returned from Louisville, uked for a continuance till to-morrow morning, saying Mr. Den nlson would probably be accompanied by Messrs. Bullock and Herd, of Louisville, u bis counsel, and that he desired that a full opportunity might bo allowed for the presentation of his claim and the arguments In support of It. Mr. Ciiasx, who appeared for Kosetta, said that no objection could be Interposed to Ihe fullest most thorough examination and hearing; be desired, however, that Kowetla might not be eent back to jail, but be properly provided for elsewhere. The Court, therefore, made an order for the continuance aaked fur, aud requiring the Marshal to provide for her compilable lodging and accommodation outside of tbe Jail, ir possi ble, without danger to her tare custody. Under thin order, tho Marshal bu again pi ov Ided for her at tho Woonacrr llotnu. Tbe case will probably bo further heard to-morrow. Yonra, J.C. rmreapoailaBes of tba Ohio Itata Joaraal.

There was a disirraceful mob here on Satur. day, the 17th. I wu attracted by a crowd on tho principal street On drawing near, I saw a young man of about 22 years standing In the midst of the crowd. Tbey were asking bis name which it appeared bo declined giving. I inquired of a bystander what Ibe excitement was. He informed me the youujr man "had declared him. self an Abolitionist, aud It not agreeing with tbe sentiments of tho people, tbey bad a notion to moo mm." ue waa to id to leave tbe place, but he declined. Some said, "Hang him I" "Tar and feather him !" " Ride him on a rail 1" Others, more moderate, proposed to send him from town, au were in tavor ot nis leaving: and those that wero the least excited advised bim to leave. He wu uked where be wu from; he answered, "Massachusetts." I uw bim leave ibe crowd, and go to the hotel. Soon lie came out and walked out the crowd, going In tbu direction of the depot. The leader of the mob, wbo (I wu told) wu the Sheriff, swore he should not leave the town, and went in chase ot him, followed by several others. Not knowing what tuoy might do, I concluded to follow, and If I could be of any prrTiuu iu icuuer n appearing io oe a stranger aa well as myself. On my way I passed somo young ladles--students of tho Female Col lege, iney inquired wuat wu the matter. 1 answered, "They say there is an AIoliiionUt Q town."
